Atrogin-1/MAFbx and MuRF1 are downregulated in aging-related loss of skeletal muscle.
Muscle atrophy in many conditions share a common mechanism in the upregulation of the muscle-specific ubiquitin E3-ligases atrophy gene-1/muscle atrophy F-box (Atrogin-1/MAFbx) and muscle ring-finger protein 1 (MuRF1). E3-ligases are part of the ubiquitin proteasome pathway utilized for protein degradation during muscle atrophy. In this study, we provide new data to show that this is not the ca...
متن کاملAging and HIV-related cognitive loss.
ALTHOUGH ANTIRETROVIRAL THERAPY HAS HAD A MAjor effect on improving the survival of individuals with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), cognitive disorders related to HIV remain an important burden of disease and disability worldwide. Among the more than 30 million adults living with HIV worldwide, a substantial proportion is estimated to have some form of HIV-associated neurocognitive disorde...
متن کاملThyroid function and aging: gender-related differences.
The effects of aging on human or animal thyroid function are still not well defined. We evaluated some aspects of thyroid function during aging using an animal model (young and old Dutch-Miranda rats). In old rats of both genders, serum thyroxine (T4) decreased but serum thyrotrophin (TSH) remained unaltered, suggesting a disturbance in the pituitary-thyroid feedback mechanism during aging. Ser...
متن کاملHearing Loss Related Quality of Life in Adolescents with Hearing Loss
Objectives: Quality of life, when referring to an individual’s health, is called health-related quality of life. The purpose of this study is to assess self-perceived hearing loss related quality of life of adolescents with hearing loss and its relationship with sex, age sub-groups or school settings with domains of quality of life. Methods: A school based survey was conducted in Tehra...
متن کاملNeurophysiological correlates of aging-related muscle weakness.
Muscle weakness associated with aging implicates central neural degeneration. However, role of the primary motor cortex (M1) is poorly understood, despite evidence that gains in strength in younger adults are associated with its adaptations. We investigated whether weakness of biceps brachii in aging analogously relates to processes in M1. We enrolled 20 young (22.6 ± 0.87 yr) and 28 old (74.79...
